Oh Brian
Thou Art In Hawthorne,
Harmonied Be Thy name
Your Kingdom Come,
Your Steak Well Done,
On Stage As It Is In Studio,
Give Us This Day, Our Shortenin' Bread
And Forgive Us Our Bootlegs,
As We Also Have Forgiven Our Wife And Managers,
And Lead Us Not Into Kokomo,
But Deliver Us From Mike Love.
Amen.  ---hypehat

I can safely say - without even seeing a single sentence -  that this is an utterly essential purchase for any right-minded clear-thinking Beach Boys fan. You'll be amazed.

On order since Sept 20 at £22.64. - amazon UK's price has already risen to £30.64 so I've saved £8! Now… what to spend the saving on …?

The Real Beach Boy revised and expanded edition continues to progress ever-slowly. I've been clearing my plate with the intention of going full-bore on finishing it. Hopefully I'll have some solid release details by the end of the year.

I, I love the colorful clothes she wears, and she's already working on my brain. I only looked in her eyes, but I picked up something I just can't explain. I, I bet I know what she’s like, and I can feel how right she’d be for me. It’s weird how she comes in so strong, and I wonder what she’s picking up from me. I hope it’s good, good, good, good vibrations, yeah!!

a diseased bunch of mo'fos if there ever was one… their beauty is so awesome that listening to them at their best is like being in some vast dream cathedral decorated with a thousand gleaming American pop culture icons.

To sum it up, they blew it, they blew it consistently, they continue to blow it, it is tragic and this pathological problem caused The Beach Boys' greatest music to be so underrated by the general public.

Hey Jon, If possible, I think you should push the publisher to make it 409 pages

Adding to the feast is an extensive collection of unpublished photos and rare memorabilia images

YMMV, but I find I don't enjoy an e-reader for anything other than text.

All roads lead to Kokomo. Exhaustive research in time travel has conclusively proven that there is no alternate universe WITHOUT Kokomo. It would've happened regardless.

Congrats Jon, looks awesome!
Thanks to all for the nice comments and orders... let it be known clearly that this book is Ian Rusten's baby and I'm just the proud uncle. Ian cultivated many years of amazing research into an impressive chronology of the group's touring career, and I just helped him polish it into a very readable and enjoyable flow. With the help of many, including certain Smiley Smilers we put together what I think is one of the coolest collections of Beach Boys photos and advertising that exists in one place. The book will feature something like 160 images, the majority never seen before, and many in color. Our publisher Backbeat Books is doing this thing up in style with a hardcover, large format (8 x 11) size, 400 pages, and photos placed near the entries for the shows they were taken at. So in many cases you will read about that show, see an ad, or a photo from it (or several from it)...read a review from the local paper, or a comment from a fan who was there, or from band members, opening acts, crew members, road managers, promoters etc... Through the decades of listings you will get a better, sharper, more in-depth and detailed view of the band as a live entity than has ever been written. You'll feel like you're on tour with them, and feel the rush of taking the stage and all the hell and glory that breaks loose night after night. Like I said, we can't wait for June.
